I'm off to see Francis Dunnery tomorrow night. A guy with a small but dedicated cult following who just can't understand why such a genius never gets the respect he deserves and why he remains such a secrect to major labels.

So who do you think suffers similarly? Who are the unsung heroes of the rock scene?

I'd also like to put forward Jason Bieler of Saigon Kick/Super Transatlantic.The demos this guy puts out on bvbmusic.com would put many 'signed' acts to shame.
